Busk To Ride - Jack Devlin - Whistler Edition

photo

I'm a 19-year-old Irish fella who lives for riding bikes doing so I have managed to make my away across the world racing the Enduro World Series and anything I can get my hands on, with the help from my love affair that just so happens to be music!

Busk, ride, gig, work, ride...

Last year I made the way to Whistler to race the World Enduro, to cut a long story short I got stuck there with no money and no flight home.

Solution? Busk so I made enough to keep afloat (ride my bike) and save for my flight home. So this became a little video project I got working on with @Vitus Bikes and @Matt Staggs Visuals

 I was hoping to see busking from Ireland for flights and ride etc. That would be a great series like the poor man's Privateer series.
